You Won't Believe How Many Eyeliners Kim Kardashian Uses to Get a Natural Makeup Look

Here you were feeling proud that you managed to apply somewhat-symmetrical eyeliner before heading to work this morning. Now we're here to humble you by pointing out that if you were Kim Kardashian, your average everyday eye makeup would involve applying three different liners.

That's right. In the latest beauty tutorial on her app/website, Kardashian and makeup artist Mario Dedivanovic share the secrets of her "natural daytime" makeup, which includes filling in her brows, subtly shading her creases with the Urban Decay Naked Palette, and curling/lacquering her lashes. While all of that is pretty standard for a polished daytime makeup scheme, here's where the three liners come in. First, Dedivanovic gets in there with a kohl liner (MAC Eye Kohl in Smolder), working from the outside in and nestling the color down into the lashes; he gently pulls up on the lid to help get the liner down in there. Then he traces over that line using a liquid eyeliner, adding winged-out corners (he uses MAC Liquid Liner in Boot Black). The third liner is for the bottom lid, where he uses the Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil in Smog to add a smidge of gold inside the waterline to enhance Kardashian's brown eyes. "Just very close to the lash line—I don't want it to be too thick," he notes.

Kim's routine is nice if you have a few hours to sit in the makeup chair, but for the non-famous among us, here are a few tricks we use to naturally enhance our features—we promise, they're uncomplicated.
